HALFBRICK RELEASES THIRD XBOX LIVE INDIE
GAME, BEST EVER

Halfbrick
Rocket Racing has been released on Xbox Live Indie Games, available for
purchase for 240 Microsoft Points. This is now the third game to be released
under the Halfbrick Fridays range of casual games, and features a massive
amount of content in one small download.

Halfbrick
Rocket Racing uses a brand new analogue control system using just the left
and right triggers. Press each one to power the rockets on each side of the
racing craft, and alternate power between the two to turn and drift around
over 40 tracks. The rockets will also serve to boost the craft off nearby
walls, so the key to achieving the best times is to grind and slide around
the perimeters of each track with speed and finesse.

Players can
try over 40 unlockable tracks each with four medals to win, with race times
uploaded to the Global Leaderboards to see where they rank against the rest
of the world. Of course, the true value lies in multiplayer, with up to four
players locally on one screen. With such intense speed, precise control and
milliseconds between first and second place, multiplayer on Halfbrick Rocket
Racing is an experience best served on the couch with likeminded speed
freaks!

Check out
the tutorial video narrated by Phil Larsen and Luke Muscat of Halfbrick, who
explain the system of the game and walk the players through some of the
earlier tracks.
